The audience capacity is 300 standing audience members (less with furnishing). Radar presents approximately 120 events per year.
Radar is the venue formerly known as Musikcaféen, which had its last show at Mejlgade 53 on the 10th of december 2011. The music venue continues in the same spirit under the new moniker, Radar, at the old Aarhus train yard (Godsbanen) at Karen Wegeners Gade 6.
Excepting a number of everyday employees, Radars team consists of two bar managers and approximately 40 indispensable volunteers, standing ready to meet you at the bar, entrance and as venue hosts, technicians and photographers.
The venue is organized as an association / independent institution with a board of directors.
Radars’ previous home at Mejlgade 53 has been utilized as a space for music venue activities since 1978. Since the mid-eighties it has progressed from an underground club toward a differentiated professional stage. Historically, the venue has played a significant role as a stage for the most current musical tendencies in Aarhus, and it has been the starting point for many acts playing the largest stages in the country today.
